What are the most interesting men’s loafer models for Spring Summer? Discover in detail three suggestions for men’s loafers made in Italy designed by Andrea Ventura, Barrett e Ortigni.
Blue loafers with clamp Andrea Ventura Firenze
The clamp, a cult accessory for 1950’s and 60’s models, gives a timeless style to this loafer. The fine leathers and the refined lines of the Andrea Ventura loafer make it a perfect shoe even for the most elegant settings. Among the peculiarities of the loafer the leather sole with an integrated anti-slip design.
This model is also available in brown leather.
The Barrett brown suede loafer
The penny loafer is a type of loafer that got its name in the ’40s from Ivy League students, who, to give the shoe a preppy touch, inserted a coin into the lip-shaped mask.
This model, one of the most traditional, is proposed by Barrett in a slender version with a thin sole and in brown suede.
This loafer is available in other types of leather as well.
Brown loafers with fringes Ortigni
This college loafer with maxi-fringes in brown unlined cowhide leather stands out from other models for the extreme flexibility of the fit obtained thanks to the Goodyear Flexible method (it has the same characteristics as the esteemed Goodyear Welted method but guarantees a unique flexibility).
Like all Ortigni shoes, this loafer distinguishes itself for a hand-finished leather sole.
Of the Ortigni brand a suede loafer variant with tassels and fringes, in beige and brown is also available.
